Allow me to translate for my good friend Ardennes : P

You only need farming skill to raise quality. The difference between Q800 and Q900 carrots to anybody who is unable to get 800 farming easily is going to be trivial at best.

In your example, you would only need 403 farming skill, as getting a farming set with +402 would be very easy - even if you're softcapping everything.

8019900 for the amount you need

I'd say 10k LP/hour is a very reasonable base to hit within your first week this late in the game. That's just base, though. You get +15% from realm, and pretty easily another 85% from RoBs/Pneck which you could be wealthy enough to purchase after only a few hours of mining. 50% on top of that for verification/sub.
Also note that questing is the primary mode of LP generation, so the curio discussion is somewhat irrelevant. If you're too lazy to grind charisma on your crafter/farmer, 2 months seems a reasonable amount of time to get 1200 farming from curios with medium tier industry.
Furthermore, I'd add late world is by far the easiest time to progress for casuals. Your enemies having Q 1300 flax when you have Q1100 is a much smaller gap than you having 30 and them having 50.
Additionally, now is, during my haven career at least, the easiest time to catch up in any regard there has ever been. HighQ seeds are cheap and everywhere. HighQ animals are cheap and everywhere. The primary mode of LP generation is based on the time you spend, not waiting for pearls to tick. There's functionally no limit on the amount of food you can produce and consume in a day. The amount of LP/attributes per hour you should expect to gain is consistantly increasing due to quality increase, so a guy who's spent 2k hours building his character over the past 2 years will probably be weaker than you spending 1k hours of the next 4-6 months.
...Lastly, I'd point out that I think late world is a more desirable place for you to be because people like Ardennes would be rushing rage/bronze swords early world to kill people like you and steal your Q10 bluebells/whatever during the brief period people who don't know what they're doing can actually produce things with value. Nowadays everything you own and your skull probably isn't worth the scent.
